Rec Deck Stain
Our back yard has a wooden deck. We have used Behr stain and even though they claim it will last a lifetime, we end up staining the deck every year. We plan on getting a stamped concrete patio in 1 or 2 years, so we need to stain the stupid deck again for this summer.
We did the 3 step process recommended by Behr, and they have refunded our money once already for it not holding up. (Make sure to save all of your receipts if you use/used this stain, because we could have gotten another refund for the prior summer)
Do you have any non Behr stain recs?
Re: Rec Deck Stain
Shoot, DH just stained our deck last weekend using Behr products. I'll have to see if he saved the receipts.
Maybe try Sherwin Williams for deck stain? I know I've had much better results with their paints compared to Behr.
I love SW paint more than Behr too. We painted our whole house in Behr, and now that we are redoing each room, we are using SW, it's much better!
I did a consumers report and it looks like Cabot is the winner. The report indicates that Behr doesn't hold up in winter climates well.
Mrs NGM maybe have your DH put a second coat down or put a clear top coat on it to make it survive the winter. Ours always looked like crap when the snow melted off of it.
